(TRANSLATION.)

STATEN ISLAND, _30th October, 1850_.

"DEAR MR. THEODORE DWIGHT:

"According to what I have promised you, I send you the first biographical sketch; and do not be surprised that it is that of my wife. She was my constant companion, in good and bad fortune—sharing, as you will see, my greatest dangers, and surpassing the bravest men. I wish you to consult Foresti, respecting the manuscripts and translations, and frankly express to me your opinion.

"YOURS,

G. GARIBALDI."
